Answer 2

Answer:

In Earthworm, genital papillae occur in segments 17 and 19

Option C

Explanation:

The genital papilla are the projections that are seen on the under-surface of the earthworm. These projections are found on the under-surface of the 17th and 19th body segment and they are present in pairs. These papilla help in the copulation of the animals. They hold the two animals together in a steady manner so, that copulation is successful.
